I got one of those new Albakore back-packs at the Fred Hall show in L.B. and I gotta tell you......they are sweet!!! They are perfect for fresh or saltwater. I have now used mine at Santa Ana River Lakes and over at Catalina. I would say they would be perfect for any style of fishing up to a 3 day trip. <br><br>They have a storage space on the top like a litte reel bag, a cooler for lunch and drinks, space for multiple tackle trays, side pockets for storage, 2 rod holders, and best of all it is a back-pack so it is very easy to wear around.<br><br>They just came out but they will be available in stores soon I am pretty sure.<br><br>They are worth it!! Anybody else get one at the show?<br><br><br>Milo

Did not make the show, but have seen lots of great reviews about it. I will be looking for this item in the stores and online as it sounds like the perfect fishing companion for me. If any one knows where it can be purchased let me know. <br><br>Texas gulf cost fisher.
I am going to have to second that Miloz. I also got one of the tackle bags and it is absolutely awesome. I had a chance to bond with Jeff Joust, his wife Naomi and there son. What a cool family. Best of luck to you and your Albackore line of products, as Steve Badman might say.....<br><br>No Worries Mate. <br><br><br><br>Booyaa To Ya'!<br><A HREF="http://www.booyaaclothing.com" target="_new">http://www.booyaaclothing.com</A> <br>Romero
That's exactly right Mike. A serious case of "no worries mate" on those bags. As Milo said, they are as sweet as and fly anglers will drool over them to I reckon. <br><br>I know this bloke already does and can see a clear use for them in either fresh or salt when carrying the long wand.<br><br>Go you good thing!<br><br>Burnin Thumbs!<br><br>Steve B <br>Mod-Lures/Baits & Oz Boards<br><A HREF="http://www.demonjigs.com" target="_new">http://www.demonjigs.com</A>

Jeff sent me one before the show to do a preview on-and I am not saying this because it was a freebie-but the bag is awsome. YOu can check them out and probably purchase one on their web site. And to top it off when I met Jeff it was a pleasure because he was such a nice guy. And to really top it off Jeff was pleased with the people who told him they saw his product in FTC and came to his booth to check it out.<br><br>

OK guys, I am keeping a good eye on yall. you keep talking around my question. You all agree that Jeff is the answer but what is his site address? or other contact info? I just hope when I find the Albakore back-pack it is not out of my price range. If it is then I will hope it stays avalable wile I save up for it.<br><br>Texas gulf cost fisher.

troutman, Thanks for the link. It took me a couple min. to navigate to the price but was pleased when I got there. I will have to wait till the beginning of next month to buy it, and I hope it is not sold out then. After seeing it with the detailed info it has me verry eager to get it A.S.A.P. I did bookmark the site. Thanks Again<br><br>Texas gulf cost fisher.
